Ultimaker Cura 3.1 - December 5, 2017

New profiles

Profile added for 0.25 mm print core.New print core profile added for 0.25 mm print core. This new print core has an extra fine nozzle width, which gives prints high definition and increased surface quality.

Profile added for Breakaway material. New material profile added for Breakaway material, a dry post processing support material, which can be used for models with flat surface area overhangs.

UI enhancements

Faster profile switching speed.Duplicating and removing a profile could take Ultimaker Cura quite some time, it now happens instantly.

Faster printer selection. Removing a printer from the library is now instant. No more unresponsive screens.

Faster processing speed. A 5 - 10 % speed increase when calculating normals, loading models, and slicing.

Quick camera controls. New buttons have been added to the interface that can quickly reposition the camera view of the build plate.

Lock model on platform. The move tool has a new option to lock a selected model to the platform. Once locked, it can not be moved in X, Y and Z directions.

Layer view. The existing Layer view has been updated to include a virtual print head that simulates the printing strategy. This can be used to see the printing order of infill and walls, and if line ordering affects overhangs.

Feedrate visualization. Feedrate visualization has been added to the Layer view. Speeds have corresponding colors, ranging from red to blue. Fast speeds (up to 250 mm/s) are represented by red (e.g. print head travels). Slower speeds (20 mm/s) are shown in blue, (e.g. the first layer of a print). Using this gives the user an idea of the print speeds per model part, allowing for better control over prints and more informed fabrication.

Jogging. Jogging allows the printhead to be moved with on-screen controls. The Ultimaker 2+ and other RepRap printers can now be fully controlled from Ultimaker Cura when connected through USB. Each axis can be jogged in 0.1, 1, 10 and 100 mm increments.

Large model loading. Loading large/detailed models and slicing them on a high resolution could affect the performance of Ultimaker Cura in previous releases. A new feature has been added which unloads the layer view when switching to solid mode, speeding Ultimaker Cura back up without losing your G-code/layer view information.

Scripts folder. A scripts folder is now available in the Ultimaker Cura configuration folder. This folder can be loaded with post processing plugins scripts, which will automatically show in Ultimaker Cura. Contributed by fieldOfView.

HP 3D Scan compatibility. HP 3D Scan Version 5.3.0 results can be directly exported to Ultimaker Cura application version 3.0.4 and later

Optimized workflow for crash reporting. Crash reports are automatically generated and allow the user, in case of a crash, to easily send their report with a description to developers.

New slicing features

Floating models enabled. In previous releases, models were dropped to the build plate when support was disabled. Models now float when the setting is enabled (even if creates an impossible-to-print situation). This can be used to stack separate models on top of each other.

Slicing tolerance. A new setting that affects the intersect point to influence the dimensional accuracy for diagonal surfaces. The user can select the behaviour: ‘Inclusive’ makes gaps narrower, ‘Exclusive’ makes gaps wider, and ‘Middle’ is previous option, and also the fastest to process. When using ‘Middle’, the first layer will be taller by half of it’s height to compensate for the added half layer. This can be used to create better tolerances for test fit parts. Contributed by BagelOrb.

Optimized zig zag patterns. Zig zag patterns now print more consistently. Lines now have a 5 micron tolerance in which they are printed any way, resulting in longer connected lines. Contributed by smartavionics.

Aligned z-seam inner wall moves.Inner wall travel moves are aligned with the z-seam. This reduces the number of travel moves and reduces the chance of more unwanted seams.

Relative positioning of infill patterns.Infill patterns are now positioned relative to the center of loaded models. Whenever you load the model, the infill is positioned the same. An offset can be applied to control the infill more precisely and adjust it to preference or strength. Contributed by smartavionics.

Line resolution. Enables the user to specify the minimum allowed distance value between two points in G-code to create lower or higher resolution polygons.

Custom mode changes. If profile settings have been modified in recommended mode under custom mode, a reset icon will appear to notify the user. Click the icon to show the changes that have been made, and revert back to the default profile settings.

Bugfixes

• Fix for layer numbers being displayed incorrectly when switching between solid and layer mode
• Fix for Cura Engine crashes during slicing if Optimize Wall Printing Order setting was enabled
• Fix for uninstalling previous versions of Cura on Windows platforms
• Fix for displaying visible settings
• Fix for importing legacy .ini files
• Prevent skipping user agreement dialog by pressing escape

Moi je suis contrariée par cette nouvelle version, ils ont retiré la possibilité de régler le offset en Z pour la première couche >_<

[cartoonb51]

Salut depuis la mise à jour en 3.1 ma première couche n'ai plus aussi belle que quand j'étais en v2.7 donc pour moi se sera downgrade de cura a moin que quelqu'un et une solution !? Si c'est le cas je suis tout oui !

Qu'est ce que tu entend par le offset en Z ?

Dans les versions précédentes (en tous cas en 3.X), il y avait une option pour renseigner un décalage dans les Z de la première couche, que je ne retrouve pas (je suis peut être passée à côté ou bien ils l'ont renommée en autre chose ?? D'après le bugzilla, je pense qu'ils l'ont supprimé car elle marchait aléatoirement).

L'intérêt pour moi était, pour imprimer du PETg, de pouvoir décaler vers le haut (genre 0.07mm) la première couche afin de moins l'écraser (sinon blobs garantis) sans se retaper le calibrage des Z.

Donc au final, maintenant quand je veux imprimer du PETg, je passe par Slic3r, qui a cette option et la gère très bien.

bjr, un début d'explication sur cette page

Merci pour cette  référence, j'avais en effet dû lire un truc du genre  ^ ^ (ailleurs probablement, vu que mon commentaire était antérieur ??)

Après je n'avais pas rencontré de crash avec cette option, mais j'ai toujours paramétré des offset positifs, et non négatifs.

Dans Cura 3.1 il est possible de donner une hauteur différente à la 1ère couche, perso je mets 0.1 pour bien coller au plateau mais par défaut c'est 0.3mm, donc dès le départ ils ne veulent pas coller au plateau...
